(Flatiron Books, 2021), Oprah Winfrey and psychiatrist Bruce Perry, M.D. explore the science and stories behind childhood trauma. Winfrey and Dr. Perry joined Dart Center executive director Bruce Shapiro on September 22, 2021, for a conversation about the book, as well as trauma, resilience, neuroscience and the news agenda.

    As a person who works closely with youth who have experienced trauma in their lives, I found this very insightful and helpful. I will watch and listen to this again. Thank you

    I started the audio book version last week and have had countless ah ha moments... I'm only in chapter 3! This book has completely confirmed for me so many things about myself and that I'm not crazy...it's just the way my brain has been affected. Thank you. P.S. I don't believe I would have had the same experience in reading the book because there is so much (very good) science/research detail.

    I had similar trauma beginning in infancy and recently discovered what happened to me and how it affected me life long, almost 83 years. I thought I was flawed and defective for many, many years and kept trying to find out what was wrong with me, only to find out nothing was wrong with me, it was society that was wrong and my mother was a victim of this society and religion and it's rules that prompted her good intentions which were very traumatic to me, so much so it changed my brain. Finally fear left within the past two years and finally I can live in the present moment of love and peace. I've been trying to write my memoir with all my journal entries, but don't have support from anyone. Have not been able to make friends and family mostly is distant due to my trauma.....lots of side effects of emotional trauma in the early years.....so very sad. I wish I could find some editor to help me.

    Sitting in and listening to the pain is something we who have lived through trauma and grief come to be familiar with. It took me 25+yrs to do so and still it is a work in progress.

    Thank you both, I have loved the book and share it widely. The way I speak to my community about this is by linking it to our stored memories and how I use memory research and memory upgrading processes to rewire the brain. For example the memory Oprah spoke about that was still triggering her even though she was living in her high rise apartments. If that memory was upgraded she would no longer be triggered and she would be able to sleep feeling safe again. The way out of trauma is to address the memories.

    That was a great talk to share .thank you all .that actually remind me of what tonny robbins once said in the meaning of that we tend to give a meaning to what hapens to us .and we choose the worse meaning " so yes it's about what hapened to you .but also it's about the meaning that you give to that and chaping that meaning in a way that gives you power to heal and continue in life .and facing the truth in what hapen .this is where start the solution

    As an adult who experienced childhood trauma; I have a question. Is it society’s responsibility to tiptoe around our triggers?
    I think the goal of this book was to raise awareness. I hope it does.

    • @hayleysimmons8375
      @hayleysimmons8375 Год назад +1

      its not societies responsibility ,but it is government's responsibility to train more therapists and teachers in Trauma Informed Awareness. it is our own responsibility to help ourselves and get help.

      The book pointed to a solution i had never understood as clearly ever before: Self-regulation. Everything changes completly by engaging in self-regulation.
      I have been practising this since i listened to the audiobook the first time and it has changed so much. The book i use as toolbox for learning and practicing self-regulation is Dr Peter Levines', Dr Maggie Phillips' book 'Freedom from Pain'.

      “Tiptoe” may be how it feels given we’ve been so prone to blame victims at best and deny victim hood in general. When someone has a stroke or heart attack do we tiptoe around them? Or do we assist and work very very hard at it?

    I’ve always thought this way.
    But, when I say to people “that murderer or pedophile I guarantee had the same done to them” and all the prisoners have had loads of abuse and abandonment, people role their eyes and get mad at me.

      Because it's easier to dehumanize them than it is to admit they're imperfect people like us that went astray at some point along the way.

    The most essential is to learn to become autonomous as human being in developing maturity that is the objective in this social system. Even if need time.
    Having strong repairs even if there are many fzilures weakness fear doubt...
    Affective surounding can be important.
    Learn self respect. Educative pattern.
    Religious values
    mistakes are a part of human nature.

    Another example of science trying to play the role of God in the healing process. I’m not religious at all but it’s clear to me that we are trying to come up with a scientific way of healing when it all really boils down to faith and love at the end of it. But hey know yourself out!
